well Im not a believer but this is why he claims he can do it. He does not consider it to be debt if he spent it. Its only debt if Bush spent it so when he says hes going to "pay off half the national debt in 4 years" he only means half of what Bush ran up.

Obozo spent more in a month than Dubya spent in 8 years and hes just getting started so once Obozos first and only term is up his deficit will be one for the history books.
